foreign policy is the gentlelady from florida, former chairman of the foreign affairs committee, to whom i'd yield now, ms. ileana ros-lehtinen. ms. ros-lehtinen: thank you so much, mr. speaker. i want to thank mr. roskam for his leadership in spear heading this discussion on the dangers of last month's interim nuclear agreement deal with iran. as we've had more time to dissect this deal, it is becoming clearer and clearer that despite secretary kerry's claim that no deal is better than a bad deal, we've been had. in exchange for the one thing that iran so desperately needs, sanctions relief to jump-start its flailing economy, the administration received nothing more than window dressing to stop iran's nuclear program. this interim deal is the unraveling of the sanctions policy that was so painstakingly crafted over the past 10 years. and it was aimed at bringing iran's nuclear program to an end. we've already seen other nations eager to get back into the iranian market, and it will now be nearly impossible to stop the cash infusion into the iranian regime. how can we stop this? this dea

i don't think that this handshake is going to end up changing policy terribly. let's remember that the u.s. embargo is codified. in order to change it you need an act from congress. guess who is in charge of the foreign relations committee in the senate? bob menendez. it's going to take an act of god to get through bob menendez to change sanctions on cuba without cuba changing their repressive regime on the cuban people. let's also remember that today is international human rights day. there are people still getting repressed, harassed and jailed in cuba for wanting to express their human rights and express freedom freely what they feel and be the centers of this government. i commend president obama, because in his speech, though he did give the handshake, i think what's also meaningful is what he said in his speech, where he said that there are rulers, there are leaders, who say they are in solidarity with what mandela stood for in the latter part of his life, and yet do not allow the scent of freedom in their own countries. i would say he was talking directly
